SOLD
SKU
35366455
Choice Unc (13: 4,4,5). Fully struck with a light golden tone. Very few marks. Looks close to gem. Type of 1859 with the sharper defined portrait including the bust point. At the end of 1859 there were a few leftover dies that were dated with the new years date, 1860. After these die were used up, the design changed slightly to a rounded bust design. Why was this? The 1859-60 type is much better in my opinion. This is a mystery that should be solved. A great start in solving the mystery would be to get one for your collection.
